The Port of Immingham, also known as Immingham Docks, is a major port on the east coast of England, located on the south bank of the Humber Estuary west of Grimsby, near the town of Immingham. In 2019, the Port of Grimsby & Immingham was the largest port in the United Kingdom.

The port was established by the Humber Commercial Railway and Dock Company in association with the Great Central Railway; the dock company incorporated and the works permitted by the Humber Commercial Railway and Dock Act of 1901. Construction of the dock started in 1906 and was completed by 1912. The original main purpose of the dock was export of coal.

In the second half of the 20th century the port was considerably expanded beyond its locked dock, and east and west jetties; with the addition of several deep water jetties for bulk cargos: this included the Immingham Oil Terminal (1969, expanded 1994) for oil importation to the new Continental Oil and Lindsay Oil refineries; the Immingham Bulk Terminal (1970) built as a joint scheme by the NCB and BSC for coal export and iron ore import; the Immingham Gas Jetty (1985) for LPG import; and the Humber International Terminal (2000, expanded 2006) for bulk cargos. Roll-on/Roll-off terminals were first operated in 1966, and expanded within the dock in the 1990s, and outside the dock at the Immingham Outer Harbour (2006).

In this Phase 1 release of this extensive area are, 220 hand crafted and placed storage tanks, a lot of Terex and STS crane models (lost count), 8 hand crafted piers and a 
number of various oil tankers, ferries and ore transporters.

Please note that this is a visual quantity rather than visual quality plugin and is intended to improve the Lincolnshire skyline for VFR flight. Assets should match their real world counterparts in size and colour but may not exactly match in the same way my other plugins try to do.

Please see the attached PDF file inside the zip file which covers: Installation; Finding the community folder; Licensing; Credits; Contacts; Change Log.

This scenery works very nicely with other plugins I developed for the area, links should be at the bottom of the page.

See you in the Sim!
